    I loved knew I had to get this kit when I saw your vid.... I ordered it and another kit from you and will absolutely order more from you guys. I had to wait for your stock to get to the states. But well worth it! I hope you show us a build of this. I'm working on mine now! I have been linking your vids and online store on the Reddit subs I'm in. I hope you all get much more business! You absolutely deserve it! I tell everyone about the amazing customer service and quick response to queries. I did order from MMD before I knew about you all. But I quickly realized I wasted around $100 on that defunct store. I can't get my money back from them and they won't respond to any emails.
    When I saw that you all were going to get them in stock I immediately placed my order. Excellent online store, excellent customer service, fast shipping with in stock items, and just all around nice people! Keep up the amazing work! You have the best all around online experience I've ever had!

    They look like great kits. The Qatari one is colorful and for a moment there, I wanted to build one. The Korean one, the font looks a bit odd. Sadly, they’re too big and complicated for my taste, so I’ll probably stick to Hasegawa if I want to build an Apache.

So my build is a 1/35 early Eastern front of WW2, 1941 to mid 1942. I chose the Tamiya Russian KV-1. My question is do you know where I can get accurate markings for that theater?

    @johndillon8051 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have to agree with comment about the lack of color call outs. It looks to be an amazing kit at a good price but yon'll need to buy references to do it justice. This issue is not restricted to this kit or Takom as many manufacturers neglect this.

    • @stephengilmore2741
      @stephengilmore2741 ปีที่แล้ว

      Personally, I find that even when they do colour call outs, they're usually completely wrong or way too basic. I've never built a kit and gone by what the manufacturer has said. References should always be necessary if you want any degree of accuracy.
      Except my very first kit. When Trumpeter made me paint a Super Hornet in RLM grey. Lesson thoroughly learned.

    Hello,
    I have a challenge for you. I am looking for an arm-controlled Apache 64 helicopter toy. That came out in 1992/93. I cannot recall who made the toy, or it's correct size, but it was either 1/24, 1/32. 1/35, or 1/48, and the cool part of this Apache was that it could be connected to a joystick arm controller.
    In which you could flip the switch and the rotors would rotate. I cannot remember if there were any electronic sounds with it or not, but I believe so. The toy was very detailed, and had a pilot/co-pilot. I sure would love to find one on eBay, for my grandkids:)
    Any help in identifying/ tracking this toy down, it would be appreciated.
    Cheers!

      from what I can tell, the kits are all the same. The E for every nation includes select international markings. The Guardian version comes with select markings. the Longbow radar will come with all versions, you just won't use it on the Guardian version or the E for every nation variant, and there might be a slight weapons loadout configuration change. To put it simply, 'all three boxes contain the same macaroni, but different seasonings' :)
